Whereabouts in the south are you? I'd swap your standard grilles for the black ones that mine came with.

Nice car - had a few Mercs until I realised I was way too young to waft!
So have had only BMW's for the last decade or so and am unlikely to consider anything else!
Enjoy yours. thumbup

Is that an MSport? I have same wheels on my 325i SE. Not sure they're original, an option or aftermarket. How do you tell? No matter, they look great.

They're the M Sport wheels that tbe 4 cylinder cars came with.. It wasn't an expensive option to upgrade to the more common 18's, many did.

Indeed, it is an M Sport, they are style 194 wheels. I had to hunt about trying to work out which cars come with what as I only saw 3 cars with these, the rest had the more common 18 inch 193 style.

194s are 8J front 8.5J rears, I quite like them, probably because they're unusual. That said, Ive already been looking at other wheels lol.

CHeers for the comments guys.

No, not particularly. I'd much prefer standard.

Hmmm, it looks like someone has fitted 17 inch m-sport wheels from a lowly 4 pot to my lovely straight 6. I'd be disgusted if I didn't like the look of them so much! Plus they fitted the correct size tyres so it drives as it should.
